West himself will not appear in the film, the source says, “They’re still working on the script, so it’s unclear at this point if Kim will be a major star of the movie or making a small cameo,” the insider explains, “but her role in the movie will be pivotal.”

What’s more, “Her role is going to be very dramatic,” says the source. “Far from the bubbly happy persona that she’s always played.” “It’s going to be based on the ‘Yeezus‘ album,” a source close to West tells Radar exclusively. “That’s pretty much a narrative of Kanye’s life.”
